Did a coffee based rub for this tenderloin similar to Qbabe's recipe..this one actually has a bit of cocoa in it..woot!...plus a redeye bbq sauce, based with coffee, worcestershire and other goodies...tied it up in butcher's twine and cooked indirect at 400 to 155 internal..this thing was awesome...threw on some romaine and mixed up a pecan, cranberry vinaigrette, added some feta cheese after the vinaigrette, plus did some planked sweet/mashed taters to go with it all..Happy Memorial Day!! :woohoo: :woohoo:

I know those tater are great but the sauce on the tenderloin looks killer!

Eggtucky

It is VERY tasty Tom...cant remember where I got this, but here's the sauce...
Redeye Barbecue Sauce
Yield: Makes about 2 cups

1 slice bacon, finely chopped
1/2 medium onion, finely chopped
3/4 cup brewed strong coffee or espresso
3/4 cup ketchup
1/4 cup Worcestershire sauce
1/4 cup heavy cream
3 tablespoons brown sugar
2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
Coarse salt (kosher or sea) and freshly ground pepper to taste

Place the bacon and onion in a heavy saucepan cook over medium heat until lightly browned, 3 minutes, stirring often. Stir in the remaining ingredients and gradually bring to a boil. Reduce the heat slightly and simmer the sauce until thick and richly flavored, 10 minutes, whisking from time to time. Correct the seasoning, adding salt and pepper to taste.

I added a shot of bourbon too.. :woohoo:
